On the local board there was considerabl g
activity among buyers of milling wheat but
scarcely anything was done in futures. Sell
future delivery but failed to draw out bids.
Local millers were buying again, but out
siders were also taking fair share. Prices
were weaker, especially on high grades:
Coarse grains are firm and hay is In demand
for good wild. Local stocks are expected to
show decrease of 125 900 bushels for the
week.

Flour-The mills are turning out full
amount of flour, and stocks are selling very
well. Millers are generally firm in express
sion of views as to the immediate future,
owing to the continued firmness of milling
wheat and the prospective lateness of the
season before the new will be in a condition
to turn into -four. Low grade stock is pretty
well sold for forward delivery, with
some scarcity in filing orders for prompt
